You know I agree on a lot of things with you but I still can't believe you still support McJudas
...one of the reasons that I was an admirer of John McCain is that I met his father (I was in the submarine service) and, if the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, then the son is also a decent and honorable man.
There are a lot of things that I believe McCain has attempted that I endorse wholeheartedly; I have long believed that there is far too much money in campaigns and consequently the "common man" that Jefferson spoke of is not able to run for office--both the Senate and the House have become bastions of power for millionaires or the "stooges" of millionaires--hence the need for campaign finance reform.
I also agree with McCain about the need for smaller government and more fiscal responsiblity. Congressional spending is out of control, whether it is the GOP or Democrats who hold the reins of power. I do not understand the president's ideas for such items as "No Child Left Behind," or "the senior prescription drug program"; and I am perplexed about Bush's stance on stem cell research when, in the opinion of some of us "anti abortionists" life begins only at implantation in the womb--otherwise birth control pills should also be targeted by the extreme pro lifers.
I do not agree with McCain on 2nd Amendment issues or immigration...
